Everything after page 1 of this thread may very well have UNMARKED SPOILERS. Just go read the comic!

A young man stands in his bedroom. It just so happens that today, the 13th of April, is this young man's birthday. Though it wasthirteen years ago he was given life, it is only today he will begiven a name!

What will the name of this young man be?

And so starts Homestuck, the latest in a series of MS Paint Adventures (actually drawn in Photoshop from day 2). This thing only gets more awesome as it goes on and man, it's barely halfway over! Anyway you should read it but start on page 1 or you'll be lost. You might be lost anyways but at least you can appreciate how convoluted it is. That's my favorite thing about it, actually. Dozens of dots, dozens of themes, each connected by a throwback line. And it will all kind of fit together like some kind of cocoon of exquisite lies. Kind of like Lost, except "funny, and not as heavy handed and dour all the time."

It was the only webcomic that taught me the responsibilities involved when appointing oneself mayor of can town.(Though I admit I have recently fallen behind in reading it. I certainly need to catch back up.)

What meme is relevant right now? Look, just imagine I'm riffing on that. Updating signatures is exhausting.

Even despite having it reinforced over and over, I never quite have the Kids chumhandles sorted out in my head, and I need to occasionally remind myself of who it is talking if I am near he end of a pester log.

Also, it seems the End of Act animation is set to arrive today at some point. So prepare your minds for a thorough boggling.
